BioWare is asking for 10,000 signatures to force the government to "release information about UFOs and extra-terrestrial life." Apparently this campaign will "change the way we think about aliens forever." Christ almighty.

When a Mass Effect fan called BioWare out on the forums, asking why the studio was wasting government time and resources on an ad campaign, a moderator denied everything. It even claimed that the site was invalid, when it is freely viewable to anybody with a browser. I have a feeling that BioWare thinks it's being clever by pretending it has no official involvement in this. Oh sorry ... did I just spoil it?

Something tells me that we weren't given the right to petition so that we could bombard politicians with frivolous demands aimed at promoting a videogame. I could be wrong about that, though.
